A few of Diend's other summoned Riders have had dialogue, I think. Kaixa and the Hoppers, right? So there's a real question mark as to what it means for these Riders to be defeated/destroyed.

Only a typo! That said, if you think it works, keep it!

It's two different things being discussed, though. There's the structure, and then there's the theme. The structure (or aesthetics or world or whatever) is too identical, so it doesn't have the spark necessary to feel like a story worth telling. But the theme is too different (to me), where it's not talking about the topics that Kabuto spent a year talking about.

This is a series that's alway better off changing the exterior, but honoring the interior. If they'd crafted a story that honored what I loved from Kabuto, but changed around all of the players from it, I'd've been thrilled.
